Which term can be put in the blank to make the statement below true?
4,000,000=40
A. Thousands
B. Ten-Thousands
C. Hundred-thousands
D. Millions
well, 4,000,000 has 6 zeros.
40 has 1 zero.
So, if you need to add 5 more zeros, which multiplier has 5 zeros?
To determine which term can be put in the blank to make the statement true, let's analyze the given numbers.
We have "4,000,000" which represents four million, and "40" which is a smaller number.
Since "4,000,000" is equal to "40," we can see that the smaller number is a hundred-thousandth of the larger number.
To fill in the blank, we need to consider the place value of the smaller number relative to the larger number. In this case, the smaller number "40" is one hundred-thousandth of the larger number "4,000,000."
Therefore, the correct term to put in the blank is option C. Hundred-thousands.
